And lo, the music search engine came forth …

Hurrah, hopefuly the starting gun in the rapid-fire development of a really good music search engine has begun with Google adding a new feature that is pan-digital music services in its results. Recognisable music-related terms, Madonna is linked above, produce a link with ‘more music results for and a couple of clicks later, you’re into albums and where you can get them from. It’s nowhere near GoFish or any of the other first wave music engines but as I say, I’m hoping we’re off and running, now who’s next? No, proprietary platform-based searches need not apply.
